Name: Shaklin's Idle Pose Replacements - OBMM Player Only
Version: 1.0
Date: 9/24/2009
Category: Animation
Author(s): Shaklin, RidiculousX, Puff

Description
===========
Shaklin's original replacement Idle Poses
RidiculousX's OBMM packaging and script
Puff's updated esp and OBMM packaging and script to change ONLY the player animations.

Details
=======
Shaklin made some cool Idle pose replacements (link: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16500 )
RidiculousX made an OBMM script and package for these poses (link: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=17237 )
And I (Puff) modified the OBMM package and script so that the mod replaces only the player's idle animations, so you don't have male guards getting all sexy on ya.

I claim no rights or authorship of the original animations or the OBMM script. These belong to their respective authors and I do NOT have explicit permission from either party to repackage their work. I left a comment on RidiculousX's mod regarding replacing just player animations (because several comments had requested this) stating that I had created a mod to do so and would be willing to share my work with him. I never received a response from RidiculousX, but I have received numerous contacts from other players wishing to know how I made the changes. So to make life easier for me, I've created and uploaded this mod. Should Shaklin or RidiculousX contact me and ask me to remove it, I will do so IMMEDIATELY.


Install
=======
1. Download OBMM file
2. Double click on it
3. Activate it in OBMM
4. CHECK YOUR LOAD ORDER
5. Enjoy.

Uninstall
=========
1. Deactivate it in OBMM
2. (Optional) Delete it from your OBMM mod list


Incompatibility
===============
This mod is not compatible with any other mods that replace player OR NPC idle animations.

Known Issues or Bugs
====================
The animations will not always play, sometimes the game will use the vanilla animation. This is a bug in the engine and can not be fixed (without making EVERYBODY use the same animations - like the original mod did).

The animations do not play in the inventory screen, the vanilla animations are used here. This is a bug in the engine and can not be fixed (without a LOT of hacking and slashing and blowing stuff up).

If you load the esp in the editor and view the animations tab of any NPC, you'll get numerous errors. These are because Shaklin's original animations are not very clean. However the animation files themselves work well in game. I can not comment on any performance issues the unclean animations may cause, I have not noticed any on my machine.

I will support the player only OBMM script and esp. I will NOT provide any support for the animations themselves, they are Shaklin's work and you should contact Shaklin for support.
